How many days has it been?

I can only say sorry if you have been to this site over the last month hoping to hear/see where ive been next.
Im not going to bore you with the reasons why i havent updated it but i will give a precis of what has gone on.
Phew
Since Sept 9th
I stayed in PP until the 14th Sept (leaving was much harder than i had thought it would be and Cambodia is very present inmy thinking each day)
I arrived in Bangkok on the 15thg after a crazy 13hr ride on a clapped out bus! (you would have assumed after travelling all over SE Asia for nearly six months i would have understood the difficulties in bussing from PP to Bangkok, but no!)
The flight which was available $100 compared to the bus$15 seemed any easy choice at the end of travelling, but..... the flight took 40 minutes! something i didnt think to hard over! Doh!
With no small bills (in the provinces $20 US is a note that causes problems when you try to but water and food!)
So i was on a bus for too many hours, tired and sore as we rolled into Bangkok in the middle of a tropical monsoon.
Spent 4 days in Bangkok
Have to say i enjoyed the city more this time (culture shock seems to have wiped me out when i arrived here at the start of my trip!)
Bartered for clothes, got staunch with a tuktuk as he tried to rip me off,it ws all fun as i approached the next part of my trip....So on the 18th i left and caught a longhaul flight to `london........and the World Cup
